It'll be on the door tag...usually in the 6.xxs and 8.xxs in that time frame
I believe it. Back in the day Dad forbid his drivers to exceed 50 mph. Speed limits were 55. At 50, they were starting to work up a sweat.

As I recall, the wheels that are even inch diameters 17", 20" are split rims, and the half-sizes 19.5", etc are not
Already found a freightliner rear end for it with the 19.5 wheels! That will be another road trip.

I started looking for one of these but couldn't find one anywhere near me...not giving up just yet.
 
Deal fell thru! Grossly misrepresented. Rear window area all dented up and top cap of cab welded to header panel! 12 hrs of my life wasted on the road to nowhere.

Engine leaking oil as was the hydraulics for the dump bed. Pics on the ad were taken after restoration which took place who knows when.

Saw this gem on the way over. 1963 model but too pricey for my shallow pockets

One of those Whites literally a quarter mile from my house

Check out purplewave.com for ag auctions.

Dented cabs/roofs tend to be the rule on farm grain/hay trucks
